Exhibit Summary
Air viscosity flying disc is a Electromechanical interaction interactive exhibit in the Mechanics in Motion category, designed for science centers, children’s museums, discovery centers, STEM learning centers and family entertainment centers. Built as a hands-on, mechanical & electromechanical display, it turns an abstract scientific concept into direct, interactive visitor exploration, and is engineered for durable, low-maintenance, high-traffic gallery use.
Scientific Principle
Viscosity is the internal friction force displayed when the fluid moves. At low Reynolds numbers, it is caused by the thermal motion of molecules and intermolecular attraction. At high Reynolds numbers, it is mainly caused by the movement of molecular groups. The viscosity of air increases as temperature increases. In aircraft design, if the viscous frictional resistance of the air can be reduced, the aircraft can fly faster.
Operation
This exhibition item uses a mechanical hands-on unit to press the press rod and watch the phenomenon of its driven rotation with the motor rotating assembly without contact. Through experiencing this exhibition item, you can have a better understanding of the viscosity of fluids. 1. Press the start button, and the disc on the motor shaft starts to rotate. At this time, the disc on the other side of the moving disc remains stationary because it is far away. 2. Press the press rod to adjust the distance between the two discs. When it reaches a certain position (there is no contact between the flying discs), the disc on the other side will also rotate with the rotating disc.
